EyeWorld Optometry

Dr Beack is very nice, kind and professional. Made my first appointment for eye exam today, only took me 30 mins. She was patience and explained everything that i need to know about wearing contact since it’s my first time wearing it. I was referral by a friend, very satisfied with everything, the worker Irene was nice and kind too! Definitely coming back here.

Great establishment! Do note, that the business opens at 10AM, but Doc Janet isn’t in until 11AM, so plan accordingly. Plenty of parking, BUT the plaza has plenty of establishments, as well. So get in as early as you can to avoid parking mishaps. It’s Convoy after all! Walked back in at 11AM & Doc Janet was there to get some information. She’s one of the nicest doctors I’ve had the pleasure of working with. She made sure to answer & address any concerns I had. Also she did a great job explaining what the tests were for. The whole appointment took about 25 – 30 min, really depends on if you have a lot of questions or whatnot. I just walked-​in needing an eye exam for contacts. This cost me $ 85. Prices vary case by case, but EyeWorld was the most affordable. They were all helpful & friendly. Thanks for the great service!

I believe eyecare is of first and foremost importance; frames are secondary. While I liked my previous optometrist, the selection of frames left a lot to be desired. I’ll be honest by acknowledging stylish frames are important to me too. Because the eyecare provided was fantastic, my compromise was to go someplace else for frames. This went on for years. Truth be told, it was a hassle not being able to pick out frames in the same visit.
Fast forward to EyeWorld Optometry.
As it turns out, there is no need for compromise. Dr. Beack is personable and professional. Her staff is friendly and very helpful. My eyecare needs are taken care of in one place. I’ve got some new specs and loving it! This place is a great find!

Being cared for under Dr. Beack is probably theee only BEST thing I can do for my eyes!
Since moving to SD, I was worried about finding a good eye dr/​office that would be of any help for me. I’m pretty much damaged goods. :(
Dr. Beack has been seeing me for the past few years and I’m soo appreciative to have found someone who loves what they do! She truly cares for her patients well being and most certainly knows her job well and because of that I will continue to come here for any questions, exams and everything else eye related.
Not to mention, they also have all the latest eye wear! I take forever to decide every time Im getting new glasses because I LOVE the variety: Tiffany’s, Gucci, Prada, Chanel. And those are just a few of the brands they offer :)

I was not aware that I needed glasses and then… Uh oh things started getting blurry. This is my first experience with any Eye Doctor. I was pleasantly surprised at the efficiency and kindness that Eye World shows. Now if only I could get a regular Doctor that acts like the employes at Eye World!
All of my experiences at Eye World have been outstanding. The staff is very knowledgeable and the prices are competitive (I compared them to Costco). From the point you walk in the door you feel welcome and both Janet and Danny have a great demeanor and know their stuff. The staff at the front are really nice.
5 Stars all the way!

It doesn’t surprise me that Eye World already has 5 Stars. I’ve been coming here since I first moved to San Diego nearly four years ago. The staff is super helpful and resourceful. Dr. Janet is a delight and incredibly welcoming. I now live in Vista but will drive an hour to stop in, just because they are that great.
They offer competitive prices on lenses (I believe most vision insurances are accepted). I was able to score a six month supply of contacts for just $ 10 after insurance. This is also where I got my first pair of Oliver Peeples glasses. They encouraged me to shop around, while I was considering. While I found one or two better quotes, I went to eye world because I knew that my glasses would be handled with quality and that the lenses would be fitted perfectly.
Great doctor, great staff, great service, great products and good prices. I can’t think of any reason to not give them five stars!

They have a great selection of frames with a lot of variety.
I have a small face and it’s hard to find cute glasses that look good on me, so I was pleased with their selection of smaller frames.
The staff was also friendly and helpful. He was even up-​front about some upgrades that he did NOT recommend, and why. I appreciated the education and his integrity.

This is a shady business.
I went there a couple years ago to replace the lenses in my glasses with prescription sunglass lenses. They charged well over $ 200 for that, but just after a year, the tint started to PEEL OFF! Instead of getting me real tinted lenses, they just put FILM on normal lenses, which should’ve cost maybe $ 10 or so. It may even be the same lenses that were already there.
When I went back asking for this to be corrected, they just told me that it’s been more than 2 years and that there is nothing they can or will do.
Between me and my family, we bought about 10 pairs of glasses there.
Never again.

I actually feel really bad that I have not written a review for Dr. Beack yet — I have seen her for at least 4 years. She was recommended to me by a co-​worker and I have never wanted to find another optometrist since. They always seem to have availability when I need eye exams, even at a short notice. They also have hours that work well for those who work the typical Monday — Friday, 8 – 5 jobs.
First, I really appreciate that Dr. Beack doesn’t make you feel embarrassed about your blindness. If you are really blind and have been to any optometrist before, I am sure you understand. I’ve gone to other optometrists who keep insisting that I can read the blurry line when I really can’t. And come on, if you’ve seen me before, why do we have to start at the line you know I can’t read? Do you think my sight really improved? Stop making me feel bad about something I have little or no control over.
Second, Dr. Beack’s appointments are efficient and not at all uncomfortable. She is personable, she has a great demeanor, and she is really considerate of your time and your comfort level. The first time I saw her I was concerned when she tried popping out my contact or tried to place them for me, but I am pretty sure she is better at putting these contacts in my eyes than I am. and I’ve been doing this 15 years!
Third, Dr. Beack seems to really care about the well-​being of her patients and has great customer service. I have about the same eye sight in both eyes and it makes my life a lot easier to have the same rx in both eyes. She is open to that and even gave me an extra sample pair of the next higher up prescription so I could test them out. She has also offered multiple times to supply me with an emergency pair if ever needed. How great is that? I’ve never had another optometrist do that. and as I said. its been 15 years!
Lastly, I have switched insurances multiple times in my years with her and despite the fact that she has been out of network for me every year except the first, it always ends up costing me the same or less by the time I submit out of networks reimbursements. I am stoked that it has worked out because I don’t want to leave. why would I? Even if I didn’t have insurance her prices are ridiculously competitive ($ 65 for eye exam including the contact fitting!).
P. S. Her assistants have also been really great about scheduling and providing me with itemized receipts as needed.
If only I could find a PCP and dentist like her…

Came here one afternoon, and my appointment was very pleasant. Dr. Beake was so nice, helpful, friendly and answered all my questions. I had to wait about a day for my glasses, and now I can see in HD!

Love Dr. Janet Beack! She’s extremely nice and genuinely cares about her patients. The guy who works as her assistant is helpful and hospitable as well. However, there’s another assistant named Irene who has rude telephone manners.

My first visit to Eye World.
Dr. Beack was very kind and she was making sure all questions were answered. Very kind doctor.
Price was good (I got my eyes exam + new set of glasses + with high index lenses came out $ 270)
^^*

I initially went to this branch, prescription in hand, to get some new glasses. They had a great selection but not exactly what I wanted. The owner recommended me to their other location in Zion Market. I found the glasses I was looking for and they got it to me within the week. The glasses were a bit loose and I went back to have it tightened. They were still loose so I went back a second time. The gentleman working there was very accommodating and helpful both times. Thanks Eye World!

I’m not a patient here but I decided to review Eyeworld because they saved me when I was in a tiny crisis! You know those commercials when someone is going to put on a contact, but then it drops in the toilet? And then they go to grab a new one but that was their last one? This is basically what happened to me. And to top it all off, it’s Fourth of July weekend so most optometrists in my area are closed.
I logged onto Unilocal and started going down the list, calling all practices and getting the answering machine. Luckily Eyeworld was open! I told them my situation, brought in my prescription (a physical written copy that I had) and they gave me a trial pair of my usual prescription, hassle free! The guy who helped me was in the middle of eating his lunch, but he was really friendly about it and very sweet for doing this! I may just switch!

Dr. Beack was kind, attentive and very thorough. Upon completion of my exam for both glasses and contacts, she gave me a few trials of 3 different contacts for free!
The gentleman working the front end had equally amazing customer service and was patient with me as I tried on their vast selection of designer frames. In the end, I chose a beautiful pair of Chanel frames and the best part was that they fit my Asian face! I no longer need to deal with glasses that fall down on my lil nose and they don’t leave indentations on my high cheek bones either!
My hubby also received the same attention and care with his selection of frames. We drove from 45 mins away just to come here and it is worth it!

Great place, nice people, nice doctor.
Everything went smoothly and they were very helpful with vision insurance stuff.
They even shaped my old glasses for me when they saw it kept falling out of place!

Located inside of Zion Market.
This is a delayed review. I saw an optometrist here and felt like it was a waste of my time & money.
I felt like my vision had worsened, but the optometrist rushed through the exam and concluded my vision was the same.
I also have high eye pressure, and I let him know that I had a specialist that I see for it. But he wouldn’t stop bugging me about it — probably lectured me a good 20 minutes that I should let him check my eye pressure even though I already let him know I was only comfortable with my specialist. And he continued to pressure me and lecture me until I felt like I was going to explode.
Honestly there was nothing good that came out of this visit. Not only did he fail to give me an updated prescription, he acted as though he knew better than the specialist and I was wrong for not letting him check my eye pressure.

The optometrist is super sweet and knowledgable. The sales people are very courteous and helpful.
They’re open until 6 and were the only ones in the area that were open after 5. This worked well for me since I do not get out of work until 5. I was able to make an appointment for the same day I called.
I came for an eye exam and was treated in a very professional yet warm way. Greeted as soon as I entered, had all of my questions answered. I came for the exam only but browsed around and saw some very cute frames. There were frames of many different price levels too which is great.
I would highly recommend this place!

If you’re looking for a pair of Asian style or modern glasses, this is definitely the place you should go.
Eyeworld Optometry is located in the same plaza as Chinamax, on the far left corner.
I usually keep my Eyeworld Optometry glasses case in my backpack. My car got broken into three days ago and it was stolen. I explained my situation and asked for a replacement and the male Korean assistant gladly provided me a new one free of charge. Thankfully, I was wearing my glasses before this incident happened.
They even provide you with a microfiber cleaning cloth.
So what did I learn about this place?
They’re extremely helpful, provide you advice on specifically your vision, and cater to your own personalized selection of glasses.

I have terrible eyesight. My vision is horrible with high astigmatism that all my contacts are always custom ordered and I wait quite a while for them too. It’s also very expensive, even when I go to Costco. The good news is that I have free vision insurance from work (the word FREE gets me every time) and it’s been almost 1.5 years since I last had my vision checked here.
The first time I came here, I had Dr. Baeck and she was very sweet. Seriously, I was surprised she could even correct my vision, since 95% of the time, everything was blurry when she asked me which one was clearer. I couldn’t even tell. Yep, my vision is THAT bad. This time around, I had Dr. Cha who fills in while Dr. Baeck is away. He was very courteous and even recommended that I go to the location in Zion if it is more convenient for me there. I’m still waiting on my trial pair this time around, but it’s good to know that if things don’t work out, I could order another trial set.
I like that they are open until 7pm on weekdays — it’s nice to browse their selection of eyeglass frames without having someone breathing down your neck like some other franchises. I don’t just feel like a number to them, and I appreciate the vast selection of high-​end and lower end brands that they offer.
